Kraft Fluid Systems becomes first ever full-line Vanguard battery distributor in North America
Kraft Fluid Systems has become the first ever full-line Vanguard commercial lithium-ion battery authorized distributor in North America. Kraft will sell and service the full product line of lithium-ion batteries designed for battery powered off-highway vehicles.
Vanguard, a division of Briggs & Stratton, currently offers a 5kWh - 48 volt battery, which was introduced in August 2019. Plans to offer 2.5kWh and 10kWh systems are underway. Vanguard's battery charger works seamlessly with the battery pack to provide a plug & play system.
Vanguard's commercial batteries and proprietary charging system offer a more robust solution for electric drive vehicles that operate in harsh conditions. The rugged modular polymer case system design with aluminum roll cage provides drop-tested proven performance and allows users to utilize batteries in parallel to increase capacity. The company has future plans to offer batteries in series format for higher voltage requirements.
The Vanguard battery offers a 3-year commercial limited warranty and has been field tested to withstand drops, power washing, dust blasting, vibration, heat, and water submersion which makes it ideal for off-highway commercial vehicle use. All Vanguard battery manufacturing, service, and technical support are located in the U.S.A.
Kraft Fluid Systems' Electric Drives Division designs, sells, and services a full range of electric drive systems and components from batteries, controls, motors, gears, and wheels for the commercial OEM electric vehicle market.
